  1. Sweden on 100Mbps Home Internet Service Next Year in Finland · · Score: 1

    ComHem (the biggest cable provider in Sweden) said they were going to start with tests this fall with this technology. Their equipment comes from Cisco and as far as I know they would use Docsis 3.0 but I know that its not ready yet so I havent got a clue how they will do it.

    Perhaps this article should have been about security issues with Wiki instead.

    Because its not really true?
    You still can criticize Bush without fear of disappearing. Just because they put cameras everywhere (which would make UK a more fascist state) is not reason enough to proclaim USA as a fascist state.
    You don't get it do you? People are scared. They want to live a good life and some believe that in order to have a safe and secure life others must be put in jail or other measures must be done to guarantee that.

  4. Re:Fix it by blowing it up. on Disney World Collecting Fingerprints · · Score: 1

    I might not always agree on everything with everybody but that doesn't give me any kind of rights to kill them or harm them in anyway. The right to not agree is part of the freedoms that I have chosen to protect. I cant have it both ways. If everyone else is not allowed to think what they want then I would not be allowed to do that too and then we have a dictatorship instead of a democracy. Its too bad that a part of the people in USA have started to take that road and started to, in my opinion, act like everyone is not free to think and feel whatever they want because it doesn't agree with them.

  5. Re:Maybe 4 bombs on Six Bomb Blasts Around Central London · · Score: 1

    People are also angry and are trying to make some sense into this big giant mess. I understand why people are trying to point a finger and give the blame to someone.
    I guess that everyone is grieving in their way. My way is with anger and frustration at those that said that they wanted to protect (Bush for example) us and that they had a way to fight the terrorist, which clearly they don't.

    I don't think you find many here that doesn't give their sympathy to the families of those who have died and I don't think you find many that doesn't pray in their own way to those in hospitals fighting for their lives. I admit, I cried today for those that died. Its a sad day indeed.

    Read this you moron and any of you that think the French aint doing much to fight the war on terrorism. CIA and the US goverment thinks otherwise.

    US and France have secret anti-terrorism centre.
    WASHINGTON - The U.S. and France set up a top-secret anti- terrorism centre in Paris that does not gather information, but plans covert operations against terrorists, the Washington Post reported on Sunday, citing unnamed U.S. and foreign secret service specialists.

  7. Re:Open doors on Man Arrested for Using Open Wireless Network · · Score: 2, Informative

    He was sitting there for hours so he couldn't have been trying to find directions since its not that hard to find. The article doesn't say what he was doing, perhaps he was playing WOW because he just does that and nothing else and therefore doesn't make money and couldn't pay his bills and did this instead OR he could have been surfing for something else (which probably most people in USA thinks right now after they found that little girl).

    Unless they can prove that what he did was against the law and charge him with that, he wouldn't be convicted here where I live but in USA I wouldn't be surprised if he got 10 years in the electric chair.

    Frankly, I think that everyone that has an open WIFI (unless its actually supposed to be open like in coffee shops etc.) should be charge with aiding to commit a crime. Its easy to secure your network and if you cant do it then call someone to do it for you. I am sure that someone are willing to do it for you for a price.

  8. Re:The ITU != the rest of UN on U.S. Won't Let Go of DNS · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You know, UN is not some strange foreign country but more like a democratic assembly. In that assembly all the countries around the world participate, like USA, and there is the Security council in which USA has a veto. USA choose not to make a big deal about Sudan. USA CHOOSE NOT TO MAKE A BIG DEAL.
    Don't blame UN when you own government didn't do shit. You are just as guilty as the rest of us so don't try to make it seem like USA are some kind of Saint that only do good deeds and protect the weak against those who wants to inflict harm on them (especially if they are Christian). USA have destroyed a whole bunch of Christian democracys, like Chile and Guatemala, and bombed and killed countless of other innocent people. I don't think that is in the bible that its ok to do that.
    And 2 millions? You pulled that out of your ass? Your own government (Yes the US of A with Bush as president) said that its only around 181000. So Muslims are now just evil? What about the new report from Iraq in which Iraq UN ambassador said that a relative of his were murdered by the peace-loving Christians in the US marine corps? That boy wanted to help you and you repaid him with a bullet in his neck.
    And don't make it into some kind of religious war because its not. Learn first what the conflict is about BEFORE you start to make wild claims.
    And your claim that UN is corrupt. SIGH. You know, USA is a big part of UN so if UN is corrupt then USA is partly to blame for it. Once again, UN is not some strange mythical organization. black helicopters flying around, that wants to destroy humankind and USA and Christians in particular.
    I have nothing against USA, in fact I love that country and I love especially one American girl more than anything in this worl. I do however something against you in person. So just because someone is criticizing you, its not critique against democracy or freedom or USA or something like that, its because they just don't like what YOU say.

  9. Re:This is a WASTE, unless... on Sweden Bans Copyrighted Downloading · · Score: 1

    Ohh, but the politicians and a lot of people, for that matter too, in USA really don't seem to care about their own constitution, except when somebody actually forces something down their own throats. Blatantly ignoring their forefathers and the freedom that USA have been built upon and admired and respected over the world (used to anyway) is what Bush does so why shouldn't average Joe?
    And speaking as a Swede, this really will only hurt the music biz itself here. Perhaps a few people will stop downloading but when police close cases without doing anything (even when there is such evidence as videos of the crocks stealing things) nobody is really that afraid that something bad will happen.
    CopySwede (the organisation that handles the "tax" on MP3 players, CD and DVD discs) wanted to raise the fee to about 3 bucks per DVD-RW disc. So now people are buying from Germany and thus not paying any Swedish taxes and the music biz gets nothing. This behaviour will increase and people will buy more and more from other countries.
    The Swedish government were pressed to do something so they didn't do any studies or anything like that but they did this, which is, mostly, a very harmless law for the average Sven. Other laws, like stopping men from beating their wife, takes ages.

  10. Re:nice on Darknet: Hollywood's War · · Score: 1

    The farmers don't tell me what I can do and cant do with their product. I can do what ever I want too with the paper. I can print stuff or wipe my behind with it. I can drink the milk or make a shake. I can buy hamburger meat and make a burger and McDonalds cant touch me. Now, with music and movies they tell you that you can only view it under certain conditions and they tell you what you can and cant do with it. So this is like comparing apples and chickens. What I think he mean is that stop consuming their products, not stop consuming all together.

    I said "wasnt working together with" and that is true. Saddam wasnt working together with Al Queda as Bush said he did. I didnt say anything about that Saddam didnt train his own terrorist. You even qouted me yourself on this. There wasnt a connection between Saddam and Al Queda. Other than a few meetings there wasnt a collaboration between them.

    It was a fact before Bush attacked Iraq that there wasnt any WMDs in Iraq. Yet Bush said he did. This is what my point is.
    I knew perfectly well what high-level decision-making is and how it works so you dont have to try and insult me. I didnt try to insult you.
    But that wasnt my point. The point is that everything pointed to the opposit of what Bush said and yet he rushed into war without support of those who could have helped him the best to create a new stable democracy. Now you got caos in Iraq.

    Oh yes, always this "the world is a better place without Saddam". What the hell am I going to say to those "You stopped beating your wife?" kind of questions? Ofcourse its better without him but yet it should have done differently.

    Iraq were no threat to USA. Not in the same capacity as Iran and North Korea is and those countries Bush havent done anything about (and if you want to find the terrorist that helped attack USA on the 9/11, you can find them in Iran). USA is much more unsecure today than it was before. The terrorist threat is greater today than ever before.

    Iraq would have been much much better off if Bush had attacked with the UN's help than without. There is so many things that USA done wrong and could have been done better and I think that is why people are most upset. It should have been done better but Bush wanted to control the oil and really give a rats ass about anything else.

    The fact that Saddam wasnt working with Al Qaeda and the fact that Saddam didnt have any WMDs is extremly serious errors that it doesnt matter if I agree with them or not. Its facts and not fiction. Thousands of people have died because of this. That is what makes them extremly serious. So get off your arrogant high horse.
